I was in the guard business for 25 years myself, and I would never work a strike for a client, even for $1 an hour more in wages. Clients can go to hell.
Now if the striking union hired us in to work a strike gate, that I would do, and then for 8 hours, bullshit with the union members.

they went back to work or at least a percentage of them did, for less money that they were actually striking for in the frist place and the brave men crossing those picket lines got raises and bounes for doing so, most spent the extra on guns other then food for their familys or thats what my dad did with his anyway. **Harlan county born and raised**
